drm/i915: Use kmap_local_page() in gem/i915_gem_execbuffer.c
The use of kmap_atomic() is being deprecated in favor of
kmap_local_page()[1], and this patch converts the calls from
kmap_atomic() to kmap_local_page().
The main difference between atomic and local mappings is that local
mappings doesn't disable page faults or preemption (the preemption is
disabled for !PREEMPT_RT case, otherwise it only disables migration).
With kmap_local_page(), we can avoid the often unwanted side effect of
unnecessary page faults and preemption disables.
In i915_gem_execbuffer.c, eb->reloc_cache.vaddr is mapped by
kmap_atomic() in eb_relocate_entry(), and is unmapped by
kunmap_atomic() in reloc_cache_reset().
And this mapping/unmapping occurs in two places: one is in
eb_relocate_vma(), and another is in eb_relocate_vma_slow().
The function eb_relocate_vma() or eb_relocate_vma_slow() doesn't
need to disable pagefaults and preemption during the above mapping/
unmapping.
So it can simply use kmap_local_page() / kunmap_local() that can
instead do the mapping / unmapping regardless of the context.
Convert the calls of kmap_atomic() / kunmap_atomic() to
kmap_local_page() / kunmap_local().
